J.S. Puller

Hello, #teachers and #librarians, I want to visit your students! Either in person, or via video chat, I've got presentations packed with writing tips like teaching the Pixar formula and more! Interested in booking me? Just fill out this form: pullerwrites.wordpress.com/contact/

A SCAR LIKE A RIVER by @lisagraff is absolutely beautiful title that I will be adding to my comp list right now! It's sad, it's funny, it's sweet, it's real. A definite must-read. #amreading #mglit #kidlit goodreads.com/book/show/2356…

A few shots from tonight's reading of SHEHERAZADE'S VOICE, at @PlaygroundCHI. So grateful to the amazing cast and crew who pulled the show together! #amwriting #mythology #theatre

How did a #theatre camp show and a #StarWars VHS turn me into the author I am today? I had the pleasure of discussing this with fellow @PlayGroundChi playwright @jaycr1 on his #podcast, TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED. Listen here: rss.com/podcasts/tellm…

Went in to vote at @highwoodlibrary and ran into two old friends: CAPTAIN SUPERLATIVE and THE LOST THINGS CLUB. #amwriting #mglit #kidlit

Don't miss Bedtime Stories with @PlaygroundCHI, next week. Tickets are free both online and in-person: playground-ch.org/monday/

I made it on screen (sorta) in last night's episode of @ChicagoMedNBC.

My crazy-talented friend, @lpiotrowski80, has a picture book coming out next year. #amreading #picturebooks Preorder your copy from @AbramsBooks: abramsbooks.com/product/northb…

Caught a (fairly disturbing) episode of #Sliders, staring @mrjerryoc, with special guest star @dawnn_lewis. It brings me such delight to see Captain Freeman and Commander Ransom, the early years. #startrek #startreklowerdecks #lowerdecks

It behooves me to inform the internet that @ChickenSoupSoul is looking for short stories under the banner of "Best Cat Ever..." Do I know anyone who likes #cats? :D #amwriting #WritingCommunity chickensoup.com/story-submissi…

Delighted to share that my ten-minute play, "Sheherezade’s Voice," will be read on March 16, as part of @PlayGroundCH's Monday Night reading series. The best part? You can see it for FREE (in person or livestreamed). Learn more here: playground-ch.org/monday/

I call this #nailart color “Gonzo”, seeing as it looks rather like my favorite of @TheMuppets.

I just discovered MY LADY JANE and I'm pretty sure the writers are all quite bonkers. But in the good way? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Lady_J…

What a legendary cast. Thank you so much for having me, EVCT- East Valley Children's Theatre! #amwriting #mythology #theatre

I’m here, East Valley Children’s Theatre! Can’t wait to see THE SECRET MEDUSA. #theatre

Happy opening night to the cast and crew of THE SECRET MEDUSA at the East Valley Children's Theatre! Another opening, another show! #theatre evct.org/medusa-2026/

Honored that my work at @UChiConsortium got a shout-out from my alma mater, @NorthwesternU. GO FIGURE and the #ArtsEd report were both labors of love: sesp.northwestern.edu/graduate-profe… See GO FIGURE: youtube.com/playlist?list=… Read the report: consortium.uchicago.edu/artsed

You know what time it is? It's "Drop Everything and Watch @TheMuppets Time!" That's totally a real thing. #TheMuppetShow #TheMuppets

It was a pleasure sitting down to chat with the East Valley Children's Theatre about THE SECRET MEDUSA, mythology, and the joy of children's theatre. Read my interview: evct.org/2026/01/29/j-s… #amwriting #theatre #mythology

Discovered the pilot episode of SLIDERS on @peacock today. Holy tomatoes, 1990s sci-fi was a trip: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliders_(…
